Quirky Museum Wedding

Vivian ♥ Yussef

Today’s feature is a wedding so unique and adorable! Vivian and Yussef wanted their wedding to be a reflection of the kind of things they love to do together as a couple, that being: watch tons of movies. Let’s start galleryin’ and share in their joy!

A bit about the wedding from the groom (yes, the groom *wink*):

We chose to get married at the Museum of Moving Images, NYC because we both love film and media of all kinds and always have a great time when we go there. MOMI allowed us to meet that theme without going overboard in the cinema themed wedding direction, since it’s also a beautiful, elegant and modernist space.I modeled the invite from the box art for In The Mood for Love. We’re huge fans of Wong Kar Wai and so his aesthetic influenced our invite and other wedding media design significantly. Probably the biggest customization was getting married in front of a projected image. This was owed to MOMI’s event manager, B.G. Hacker, letting us know that it was an option. Knowing this, we just had to make use of such a cool background for our vows!

The Happily Ever After

Extra Special Details

Handmade by the groom. The printed stationery designed by Yussef Cole (the groom) was unique and special. The modern graphics from the wedding invites had a colorful fairytale aspect to it. The same storyline with the graphics were projected as a backdrop on the movie screen at the theater where the ceremony took place.

The movie screening theme. Keeping in line with their one-of-a-kind theme, each seat at the theater had a bag of popcorn with custom made program. Before the ceremony began, there was a movie screen of an ‘Office style’ interview of Yussef and Vivan’s friends, where they chatted about how this awesome couple met and some of their best stories together.
